1 A growing body of evidence implicates requisite roles for GTP and its binding proteins (Rho GTPases) in the cascade of events leading to physiological insulin secretion from the islet beta cell. Guanosine Triphosphate insulin Homo sapiens
2 One of the objectives of this review is to highlight our current understanding of the regulatory roles of GTP and Rho GTPases in normal islet function (e.g. proliferation and insulin secretion) as well potential defects in these signalling molecules and metabolic pathways that could contribute islet beta cell dysfunction and loss of functional beta cell mass leading to the onset of diabetes.
